Member of royalty jailed for assaulting national boxer...

A member of a royal family was sentenced to four years' jail by a sessions court in Johor Baru today, along with two others, for seriously injuring national boxer Muhamad Farkhan Mohd Haron.

Judge Zamri Bakar sentenced Tunku Nick Tazuddin Izwan Syah Tunku Qadir, 28, Alex Foo Hee Wee, 42, and Mohamad Arif Husin, 36, after finding them guilty of voluntarily causing hurt to Farkhan.

Tunku Nick, Foo and Mohamad Arif were found guilty of committing the offence under Section 325 of the Penal Code at No 44, Jalan Molek 3/2, Taman Molek, between 4.30am and 7am on May 6, 2012.

A person convicted of an offence under Section 325 can be jailed for a maximum of seven years.

Tunku Nick resides at Istana Bukit Kesenangan in Johor Bahru.

The judge also rejected their application for a stay of execution of the sentence pending appeal, resulting in Tunku Nick, Foo and Mohamad Arif to spend time in the lock-up.

DPP Dzul Iswari Mohd Jaafar prosecuted in the case, while the three were represented by Zamri Idrus, Norman Fernandez and Masri Mohammad.

Lawyer Gobind Singh Deo held a watching brief for the national boxer, who was also a SEA Games gold medallist.

Missed the London Olympics

On June 15 last year, Gobind gave given the Attorney-General's Chambers an ultimatum, demanding to know whether it would take action on the assault against Farkhan. 

Farkhan, the 2009, Laos Sea Games gold medallist, is said to have been assaulted with wood, iron rods and a samurai sword by a member of the royal family and his friends on May 6, 2012, after which he lodged a police report.

The assault caused Farkhan to suffer a broken jaw and miss last year's London Olympics.

To make matters worse, Farkhan's father, Mohd Haron Ismail, who was disturbed by the attack, died of a heart attack several weeks after the incident.

After this, the prosecution charged Tunku Nick, Foo and Mohamad Arif for the attack-malaysiakini 

Judge VT Singham retires after delivering 
A.Kugan judgment...

High Court judge Datuk V. T. Singham (picture) leaves the judiciary today, on his 65th birthday, a year before his term is up.


The decision sent shockwaves through the legal community as it comes two days after he delivered a damning judgment against the Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar and the police force over the death of detainee A. Kugan three years ago.

Sources within the legal fraternity told The Malaysian Insider that Singham, who was known as a straight-talking judge, had been bypassed for promotion numerous times.

Many of his peers who were made Judicial Commissioners with him more than 10 years ago, have been elevated to the Court of Appeal and the Federal Court.

This left Singham behind as the most senior High Court judge in Malaysia.

The Malaysian Insider learnt that he sent in his papers for optional retirement sometime back.

Singham himself kept mum on his resignation this morning and it was business as usual as he entertained reporters who wanted copies of his written judgment on the landmark Kugan case, where he awarded the mother of the victim more than RM800,000.

But word that this is his last day trickled outside into the noisy corridors of the Kuala Lumpur court complex.

A well-respected judge, Singham’s legal mind was a walking library on tap for many other judges. One described him as a "good reference person".

He was a lawyer before he became a judicial commissioner. He also had a brief stint as a reporter.

Sources say the bachelor is a religious man who will now devote his time to pilgrimages and travelling.

He has served as High Court judge in Temerloh, Taiping, Ipoh, Kuantan and Kuala Lumpur. – June 28, 2013.-malaysian insider
